What to choose between MM/SD / GDM...?

Hi ALL,
I have got experience in PP-PI AND QM module of around one and half years.Now there is a requirement in which i need to choose between Materials Management/ Sales and distribution and Global data Management.The project in which i will be asked to work has about 60% SD related work and rest 40% consists of all other modules together.
I don't have much idea about these modules. Can anybody plz suggest which is better to chose among these 3 modules taking into consideration the future prospects.
What is the scope of GDM in future and what will be easier for me to grasp MM or SD.
Your views and suggestions regarding are most welcome.
Regards,
Ameya Khanwalkar.

Hi ,
Thanks for the suggestion.My domain experience is of 3.3 years in Production planning & Control.
Also i have heard that there are lot many people as SD/MM consultant as compared to PP/QM consultant.Is that so ?
So can anyone advice if it is better to stay with PP/QM or to gain some sort of hands on MM/Sd as well
Thanks

what is difference between bex analyser and bex browser . please explain what are use of both and what we do in both.

hi
Bex Browser
The Business Explorer Browser (BEx Browser) makes it possible for you to access all document types of the Business Information Warehouse that are assigned to your role or that you have stored in your favorites. You can select and open documents assigned to you in the BEx Browser or store and manage new documents in the BEx Browser.
Document types that you can work with in the BEx Browser are:
· BW workbooks
· Documents that are stored in the Business Document Service (BDS)
· Links (references to file system, shortcuts)
· Links to internet sites (URLs)
· SAP transaction calls.
· Web applications and Web templates
· Crystal Reports
Bex Analyser
The Business Explorer Analyzer (BEx Analyzer) is the analysis and reporting tool of the Business Explorer that is embedded in Microsoft Excel.
Features
You can call up the BEx Query Designer in the BEx Analyzer, in order to define queries. Subsequently, you can analyze the selected InfoProvider data by navigation to the query created in the Query Designer and create different query views of the data. You can add the different query views for a query or for different queries to a work book and save them there. You can save the workbook in your favorites or in your role on the BW Server. You can also save the workbook locally on your computer.
Beyond that, you can precalculate the workbook and distribute it by e-mail to recipeients or you can export it to the Enterprise Portal and make it accessible to other employees in the company.
You can start queries in a standard view (with a Standard Web Template set up in Customizing) in the Web browser and forward the URL or continue to navigate on the Web. Similarly, you can export the Web query to MS Excel 2000.
Overview of the Functional Area of the BEx Analyzer:
·        BEx toolbar
You access the functions of the BEx Analyzer from the BEx toolbar, which takes you to the BEx Open dialog box where you can open existing queries, or to the BEx Query Designer where you can create new queries or change existing queries.
·        Evaluating Query Data
The BEx Analyzer offers convenient functions for evaluating and presenting InfoProvider data interactively. In the BEx Analyzer, you can add queries to workbooks, navigate within them and refresh the data. You can also process the queries further in Microsoft Excel or display them in the Web browser in a default view.
Navigation of a query allows you, for example, to filter characteristics on a single value, drilldown on all values for a characteristic, regroup characteristics and key figures in the rows and columns of the results area, or hide key figures. Navigation results in different views of the InfoProvider data. In addition, a range of further functions is available which allow you to edit a query interactively (for example, sorting, cumulated output, among others). In addition, you can use the editing functions in Microsoft Excel in order to set up individual format templates, to print results areas, or to create graphics.
·        Queries in Workbooks
Queries are inserted into workbooks so you can display them. When you insert a query, a link is made between the cell areas of the worksheet and the data of the InfoProvider upon which the query is based. A link therefore exists between the Business Explorer and the Business Information Warehouse Server (BW Server).
When inserting a query into the workbook, a VBA routine is automatically generated in the workbook. You can also connect the Business Explorer with your own VBA programs (Visual Basic for Applications).
You can create workbook templates, into which you can insert your queries. Workbook templates can contain pre-determined items for the area of the query, formatting settings, logos, VBA macros, and so on.
·        Precalculating workbooks
You can precalculate and distribute workbooks with the BEx Broadcaster, which is a Web application you get to form the BEx toolbar. The system generates MS Excel workbooks with historical data. You determine the time for precalculation yourself: You can have workbooks precalculated at a predefined time or they can be precalculated whenever data in the underlying InfoProvider changes. You can have the precalculated workbooks sent by e-mail or you can export them into the Enterprise Portal, where you can make them available to employees within your company.
Activities
To start the BEx Analyzer, choose Start ® Programs ® SAP Front-end Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Business Explorer Analyzer.
You can also access the BEx Analyzer via SAP Easy Access ® SAP Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Menu ® Business Explorer ® Analyzer or in the Business Explorer Browser using the Business Explorer Analyzer symbol in the menu bar.
Hope this will solve your issu

Whats the difference between wifi sync and icloud?

Good afternoon...am a little confused about syncing over wifi with itunes and wirelessly with icloud. Right now the computer I sync my devices with is an older macbook that can't be updated to Lion. I am confused though by wifi sync ability...does my macbook have to be up and running while my ios devices are powered to sync or will the devices sync anywhere to the icloud? Since my macbook can't update to Lion will I still be able to take advantage of this icloud goodness? My macbook is not my main computer but it has all of my itunes content and playlists. Hope this made sense.

My first question is this: Have your devices all been updated to iOS 5? Assuming they were running 4, then updated to 5, all your data should be on the device. From here, if you were to sync everything to the cloud, all your data will be in the cloud. It will take all the info from your devices and sync it to the cloud. However, make sure on each device you choose what you want to sync, because it will pretty much make everything the same accross all your devices. Obviously your classic isn't going to be included, so you will still need to sync that, but with the phone and the ipad, you will need to decide what you want to sync between the two. I don't own two separate devices, so I don't know exactly what the conduct between the two is, but be carefull when syncing them to the cloud.

How to get rid of the attention to choose between my wifi network or the apple tv? That appears in the screen saver

When the screen saver is on appears an message where ask me to choose between my wi fi network or my Apple Tv in order to get the signal from my PC. There is something I must do to set up the Airplay, if so, what I have to do and where?

If you are talking about the header bar of the Message Pane the only way to get rid of it completely is to close the message pane by pressing F8.
There is a add on called Compact Header that will let you make it smaller.

Help me choose between a G4 867 DP or 1.33 G4 Mac mini

What would be better to use for me? I do simple desktop publishing with Indesign and Photoshop CS, I need to choose between a MDD Dual 867 with 2 gig of ram, ATI 8500 video card, airport card and two SATA hard drives with a total of 360 GB of storage or a Mac mini 1.33 GHz G4 with 1 gig of ram, bluetooth & airport extreme with a external 160 GB mini stack. I like the MDD because its upgradeable but is it worth putting more money in it? The mac mini I am stuck with the 1 gig of ram & 32 mb video card. I need help with this decision so your input would be very appreciated.

No NO!!! Go with the Mini! The mini is much better as its so small and cute and doesn't take up all that room compared to that mighty MDD machine!
JUST KIDDING!!!!
No, seriously go with the MDD. Its more stable, rock solid, and would show the mini a thing or two. My dual 1.25 simply rocks!
The DP 1.6 and 1.8 LACK L3 CACHE!!! remember, L3 CACHE is the backbone as to why the G4s are still fighting to hang on!! No, I would rather keep my dual 1.25 with 2MB L3 then go with a sonnet upgrade which doesn't have L3. Unless, someone can honestly tell me if its really worth my money(of which I have, and can get things at wholesale price) to pop in the 1.8DP or 1.6dp and see DRAMATIC speed performance and speed bumps.

Rigging a pop-up and a check box to choose between 8 snapshots?

I'm having a problem working out how to create the hierarchical rigs to choose between 8 snapshots.
I have two sets of four snapshots: A, B, C, D and a, b, c, d
I'd like to have a pop-up menu with four options: A, B, C, D
I'd like a check box that is marked 'Upper case'
These two controls would give the option to choose between A, B, C and D - and defining whether the snapshot is 'upper case' or 'lower case'.
Any idea how to rig this?

Would this work for what you want?
-create 4 layers (lower case a,b,c,d)
-Create a new rig and add a pop-up and a checkbox.
-To the Pop up, add layers and set the layer opacity as needed for each options (a,b,c,d).
-To the checkbox, add the text parameter "All Caps". Check each letter.
This is only 4 items you have to deal with. It's the fastest, easiest way to achieve what it sounds like you are trying to create.

Hi. My photoshop elements 12 has suddenly stopped working. When i tried opening it yesterday absolutely nothing happened. After a reinstallation I got to choose between opening picture browser or photoshop elements and when trying to open elements nothing happens. Now I have reinstalled windows but still with the same result. I was using the program for several months without problem until yesterday when it suddenly stopped working. Any suggestions on what to do?

Whats the difference between these versions of photoshop?

First of all to make things clear I want to mention this first that I lives in Pakistan and Adobe doesn't support my region so in order to buy the Adobe Photoshop CC I have to contact the authorized resellers, after contacting them and asking for a invoice proposal for Adobe Photoshop CC, they send me several invoice proposals (per user team liscense). But I just got in a trouble as these proposals are offering Photoshop CC different versions so its like kinda making me double mind, i am just confused which to buy as prices are differ too and kinda noticeable. As for making my intentions clear I also wanna mention that I am looking for Single App Liscense i mean i just wanna buy Photoshop CC thats it. But for sure its not gonna be that photography version nor student one. Also i wanna know that whats the difference between these two versions and also tell me the pros and cons.
So please help me choose which one is better for me as I am really confused with it.
Here are the links
Note: You will have to translate these pages into english
Link one:
[65224660BA01A12] ราคาพิเศษ จำหน่าย Photoshop CC ALL Multiple Platforms Multi Asian Languages Licensing Subscription Mo…
Link two:
[65226001BA01A12] ราคาพิเศษ จำหน่าย Photoshop CC ALL Multiple Platforms Multi Asian Languages Licensing Subscription Mo…
I've attached screenshots too

The features in both of the Photoshop CC are identical, there is a difference in price because, the higher priced is the original Photoshop price, the less priced is the promotional priced Photoshop CC eligible only if you have CS3 or later version of Adobe creative suite product.
Hope this answers your question.

ADF BC: Choosing between two identical DB schemas on application startup

Hi,
We want to provide users with capability to choose between two identical db schema.
Anu idea how to do this ?

Cvele wrote:
Thanks a lot ! My pleasure.
One question: datasource name entered by the user (on the login form) is a JDBCDataSource property value for the Application module Configuration (which connect trough JDBC DataSource), correct ?Yes.
If so, then, we still must define two different sets of App Module Configurations, one for each DB schema, correct ?No. I'm not suggesting that you implement your UI like the demo that I forwarded. It might not be appropriate for your user to type in the datasource name, but the same code would be required to make the datasource name change work. Rather than getting the datasource name from the HTTPRequest and setting on the session where the custom sesison cookie impl and env info provider access you, for your solution that datasource value might come from some other place that the end-user doesn't directly type in.
Otherwise:
1. we cannot have two different datasource names, correct ?The example I forwarded should allow you to enter different JNDI names, so those would be different datasources.
2. in case of one Configuration – what is a way to define (at deployment time) username/password for each of those two schemas ? Is this correct ?The username/password information is encapsulated inside the Java EE container when you define the datasource. The application doesn't know that information and doesn't have to provide it when you are using a JDBC datasource by JNDI name.
On the other hand, what confuses me, is a fact that you say:
“You wouldn't use different configurations” And really, you example attached to me have just one App module Configuration (datasource name = jdbc/scottDS), which connect through dataSource.
Wondering what a user can enter as datasource name, except jdbc/scottDS ?I forget whether in my example I configured another datasource, but the user could enter the name of any available JNDI name for the datasource on the Java EE container.
Again, I don't suggest necessarily that you let the end-user type it in, that was just how I built the demo since I quickly evolved it from the other dynamic credentials demo that accepted the username and password from the end-user.

I need help to take decision to choose between iMac Late 13 and Mac Mini Late 12

Hey guys,
I have currently got iMac 27 3.2 GHz mid 2010 and since I am a photographer it unfortunately dosn't meet my requirments at all! It has recently become too slow and that is why I have taken my decision to purchase a new desktop to improve!
I was intensely awaiting new Mac Mini Late 2013 at Apple 22 Oct event yet no new Mac Mini came up for upcoming year! Now I am very skeptical to choose between to options; iMac Late 2013 and Mac Mini Late 2012! Since having high performance is really essential for me, I am going to tune up my device with 2 Samsung 840 PRO SSD and 16GB RAM to take advantage of the best possible performance.
Since I can easily utilise my iMac 2010 27" as display for Mac Mini, please instruct me which on I should buy or I have to be more patient for next Mac Mini!
Thanks in advance!

I am not sure how you are planning to "easily utilise my iMac 2010 27" as display for Mac Mini" I am concerned that might not work out nearly as well as you might think. I have seen that attempted by others and the results were pretty clunky and could easily wipe out any anticipated speed gains. Be sure and talk to someone who uses an iMac as a display for another computer before you spend any money.
That said, if I were in your shoes I would either go with a current top end iMac or a maxed out, top end Mac mini and a 27" Thunderbolt monitor. You will end up spending about the same either way. You can save a few hundred dollars buying factory refurbished machines from the online Apple Store or Smalldog.com but you take your choice of what is available and don't expect it to be there tomorrow.

What does choosing interface as public or private during rac install mean?

What does choosing interface as public or private during rac install mean? You see the option on the OUI screen in the step after adding nodes on which you need the install.

Public: Is the interfacce where the connection to the db is done (user, application server etc).
Private: Used for communication between the nodes in the cluster and is done by the instances. No one should be able to connect via this interface.

8mb cache drives, whats the difference between brands?

hello,
whats the difference between maxtor, western digital and seagate(if they have 8mb cache), when it comes to the 8mb cache drives. i know all these are good brands and basically equal. western digital were the first right? but in terms of noise, seeking time, heat and all.......whats the best buy?
thanks,
edison

All 8MB cache HDD existing now are excellent. The maxtor is slightly more recent than the WD, boasting 80GB platters against 60GB platters for the WD (hence higher density and theoritically higher transfer speed).
In the benchs, the drives are roughly equivalent (passing each other depending on the tests). Any way, no application are pushing those as far as i know.
So, choose any. WD has already a very good track record for reliability, maxtor have been leaps and bonds in this regards (read not always good, depends on model, but lately pretty good).
Your call. You cant go wrong with any.

Would you please summarize what the difference between tc and alv?

hi, experts,
would you please summarize what the difference between table control and alv base on the function and usage practice.
for example, as i know:
1.edit
tc: can edit in the same screen and save.
alv: pop up a sub screen to let user edit, so this is unconvenient.
2.functional button
alv: can have many functional button as default ,eg. sort, summary and so on
tc: developers must implements by himself.
3.color
alv: can have and change color
tc: cann't changed color
some client may required the data displayed in alv and edit in tc ,such as example BCALV_EDIT_02.
above are my idea, experts, would you give me some comments on my opinion and summarize what the difference between those two components? i should make it clear in order to consult the UI with my client.hunger for your advice, thanks!

ALV Grid is basically used for display puropse. It is more user friendly. There are arious features ( such as coloring, sorting, saving to a local file, sedning by mail etc. ) These featurs make ALV Grid a very good option to display the data .
However , the table control is not only used to display data take from the database table, but also you can do operation such as deletion of data from database table, insertion of data into the database table and updation also. Yeah it has not got the various features whihc ALV has.
So table control and ALV Grid , if you are just using for display purpose, then ALV Grid is a better option due to its layout and attractive features. But if you want to do the database operations other than display, table control can be used.
As far as execution is concerned, I think ALV Grid is faster.
ALV grid control is faster when compared to Table control. But the comaprision is Negligible .
One of the major differences comes in taking of line items - ALV has an advantage over Table Control when it comes to update database from it.Table control only allows maximum of 999 records at a time where as this limitation is not there in ALV.
Also,a main feature of ALV Grid is that it contains a standard set of functions. These functions extend beyond the functions of a table control.
These two UI elements require different keyboard navigation, with ALV Grid being more user-friendly.
An application can display table data in ALV Grid or in a table control. In some applications you can choose between displaying and editing data in either ALV Grid or a table control. If a configurable button () appears in the right upper corner of the table, it is a table control.
Basically ALV is a way to display the output and Table Control is designed in screen painter through which you can get entries in Table Control, can delete some records etc for further processing and its not use only for Display.
ALV is Application List viewer:-
Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length.
In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output.
TABLE CONTROL:-
ABAP offers two mechanisms for displaying and using table data in a screen. These mechanisms are table controls and step loops. Table controls and step loops are types of screen tables you can add to a screen in the Screen Painter.
